Over two or three days my sleep has been poor on my watch due to the duration.
Of more importance, though, is how little I look after the child inside of me.
Looking after that child does not mean that I give him all he wants. It does not mean that I protect him from all the stark realities of the world. In fact, he is stronger than I think.
There is some weariness and tiredness in my bones. Whether I am 'protecting myself' or otherwise is a consideration.
I do not read or write as much as I did. I use Reddit as my imaginative distraction.
My tasks are much more doable this week, with much less things that I absolutely 'need to do'. Part of me wants to more often consider the tasks that I really want to do.
